A LEGO Book on Love

So this past weekend, my wife and I went to the LEGO store and saw they had new Valentine's Day sets in stock, #40016 and #40015. I was more excited about the "Love You" set, since it contain a lot of new black macaroni bricks; wasn't so impress with the heart book... or is it a book? From the packaging, it's a little misleading, that you're putting a "picture" of a minifig into the heart book -- my wife kept asking me, "is there suppose to be a minifig in this set?" In the back of my mind, I knew there wasn't going to be one, especially for a $4.99 set with 51 parts.

Anyway, I ended up putting the set together... it's cute, but unlike in western movies, where there's a gun secretly stashed in a Bible, the compartment in this book of love is not deep enough to hold a minifig... Then I rechecked the packaging and saw that it was a "picture" of a minifig that you give to your sweetheart. Oh, and the picture isn't included with the set. *sigh* So is it really a book, or just a fancy photo frame...
